Health and beauty retailer Boots will be closing the doors of 60 shops next week.

The pharmacy announced the news with a customer notice on their social media pages.

Boots explained: "To make sure we're serving our customers and patients to the best of our ability during this challenging time, we're temporarily closing a small number of stores that are very quiet at this time."

Around 60 stores will temporarily close out of the 2,400 Boots stores across the UK.

Boots say this is due to the fact the locations where people need Boots have "changed fundamentally" in the last few weeks.

Airport stores and London stores near offices, for example, have had very few visitors while local pharmacies are seeing double the number of customers.

A spokesperson for Boots UK said: "All over the country, we are working tirelessly to support the NHS and to provide our customers with the advice, healthcare, medicine and products that they need.

"We are committed to being there for the people that need us and we will not leave a community without a pharmacy. We would like to thank our colleagues for their work and our customers for their support and generosity."

Boots has said that all customers, and any prescription services, will be directed to the nearest alternative Boots, which in most cases is a short walk away.

While those who have existing deliveries or prescriptions to collect at any of the affected stores, will be contacted over the course of the next few days.

But which stores are closing?
